2024 Malta €5 1-oz Silver Maltese Bee Ennobled Coin BU

Limited-Edition Maltese Bee Coin Creating A Real Buzz

Long before coins were used as currency, markets used a barter system that relied on the direct exchange of goods and services where people traded items like food, tools, and livestock without using money. In ancient Malta, one of the most prized goods of exchange was honey. That early monetary legacy is commemorated here on this intricately designed coin that goes right to the source of honey with a breathtaking design of a Maltese Bee.

Harmonious Connection Between The Past And Future In Numismatic Art

The result of a collaboration between the Central Bank of Malta and the Germania Mint, this 2024-dated Maltese Bee, this coin is a tribute to Malta's monetary heritage, which began in 1977 with the release of its first collector coin, the Maltese Bee. The updated design features a unique scalloped shape, meticulous craftsmanship, and artistic charm–all symbolizing a harmonious connection between the past and future in numismatic art. Each Maltese Bee Coin was struck in a full Troy ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver and augmented with selective ennobling in Black Ruthenium and Yellow Gold.

Honey As A Symbol Of Wealth

In ancient Malta, honey was highly prized and used as a form of currency, particularly during the Bronze Age. Its value stemmed not only from its sweetness and nutritional properties but also from its rarity and the labor-intensive process of beekeeping. As a symbol of wealth, honey was exchanged for goods and services, often in trade with neighboring cultures. Archaeological evidence suggests that honey was stored in jars and traded in markets, underscoring its importance in the local economy.
